"Sai'er." He Miao said. Of course she was willing to let her daughter enter the palace to accompany Her Highness Princess Guangling, but as soon as they left the prison gate, her daughter would be sent to the palace. Even though the food and clothing in the palace were better than those at home.
Fortunately, she didn't want her daughter to enter the palace now. "Can you please ask Her Royal Highness Princess Guangling to allow Sai'er to stay at home for a few more days?" she said softly.
"I'll think of a way." If Min'er could beg for help, Min'er would certainly agree, but the problem was how could they see the princess? But just as Tang Jingyu was about to refuse, he saw He Miao's expression, and then saw
Tang Saier, who was sleeping soundly on He Miao, found it hard to say these words, and finally said this.
"If we really can't contact Her Royal Highness, that's it." He Miao said again. She also knew the difficulty of the problem.
"Don't worry, I will try my best to plead with Her Royal Highness the Princess." Seeing his wife's expression, Tang Jingyu suddenly said solemnly, and thought in his heart: 'No matter what, I must spread the news to the Princess!'
Although it was very hard to suppress the White Lotus Sect in Shandong, they finally knew about the situation of their wives and children in prison, and understood that as long as they could make contributions, they could be rescued from prison; but He Miao and Tang Saier seemed to have no regrets.
What a hardship, but knowing nothing in prison, he should be more frightened than himself. If the court wants to send him to another place on errands tomorrow, he cannot go against it; but within the scope of his ability, he will never let his wife and children worry again.
While they were talking, they had arrived at the courtyard where Tang Jingyu rented in the south of the city. He Miao got out of the car with her daughter in her arms. Tang Jingyu paid the fare and walked into the courtyard. It was almost dark and it was getting late, so they tidied up a little.
After a while, he lay down and rested.
Tang Jingyu got up early the next morning and saw that his wife and children had not yet woken up. He got up quietly, got dressed, ate the remaining dry food from Shandong, and was about to go out. He was busy today. Although Qin Songfang
I gave him a few days off, but first I had to see if I could find a way to pass the news to Princess Guangling, and then go to the Prince of Zhou's Mansion to plead guilty to King Runan. He had been lurking in the Prince of Zhou's Mansion for more than eight years, and King Runan had always been against him.
He treated everyone equally, but suddenly learned that he was a White Lotus cultist (Tang Jingyu didn't know that Zhu You had known his identity for a long time), and he didn't know how angry he was (in fact, Zhu You was not angry, and was even a little lucky). The king of Runan, Zhu You, is resident
In the capital, even if he becomes a royal guard in the future, it would be better for him to apologize and get forgiveness.
'Do you want to imitate Lian Po and plead guilty? Or don't do it. There has been this scene in history, and operas have always sung this scene. If you continue to act like it, it will be like singing. Use all the money in your hand to buy the most expensive ones.
Gift, go and kneel down in front of Prince Zhou's Mansion to apologize.' Tang Jingyu thought as he pushed open the courtyard door and was about to hire another carriage to go out.
But after opening the courtyard door, he was stunned for a moment. He didn't come back to his senses until he heard the name "I've met Mr. Tang." He looked at the strange young man who just spoke and asked, "Who are you? Please forgive me for my poor eyesight. I don't know."
Who are you? What is your purpose here?"
While asking the question, he also looked up and down at the young man. The clothes on the young man were not luxurious, but they were definitely not something that ordinary people would be willing to wear, and even ordinary scholars would not be willing to wear them. The clothes fit him very well, obviously.
It was tailor-made, and he was not wearing someone else's leftover clothes. Moreover, although this young man had a bookish air about him, he did not look like a weak scholar, and he had an extraordinary bearing. Tang Jingyu instantly concluded that this person was not an ordinary person, and might be from the Xungui family.
A child taking the imperial examination route. Thinking of this, his attitude became more respectful.
"I'm Yu Qian," the young man said.
"Yu Qian? It turns out to be Mr. Yu." After hearing his title, Tang Jingyu immediately saluted and said. Although he has never met Yu Qian, he has heard of it. His father is Yu Xu, who teaches at both the Imperial City School and the Wucheng School.
I can be regarded as the companion of His Highness the Crown Prince. Although his status is not high, he will not provoke him even if he is an ordinary noble. His status is much higher than his own, so he hurriedly adopts the etiquette when facing the children of noble nobles.
Seeing Tang Jingyu performing such a heavy salute, Yu Qian suddenly panicked and said, "Mr. Tang, there is no need to salute like this."
"May I ask what Young Master Yu is doing in front of the courtyard where I rent you? Could it be that the previous tenants of this courtyard were friends or fellow villagers of Young Master Yu? I'm sorry, Young Master Yu, I don't know where the previous tenants moved to. But I'm sorry.
You can find the owner of this courtyard, and Mr. Yu can ask him." Tang Jingyu said again.
"No, the students came here specifically to see Mr. and Mrs. Tang today." Yu Qian said. And after saying this, he suddenly calmed down.
"Excuse me, Mr. Yu, what do you want from me?" Tang Jingyu asked. He has never met Yu Qian before, and has never dealt with him at all. What does Yu Qian want to see him for?
"The student happened to meet Mrs. Tang and Miss Tang when he went out with his father on the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month. Because the student had gone to Prince Zhou's Mansion with his father before, the student also met Mrs. Tang and Miss Tang in other places by chance.
After they recognized each other, they exchanged a few words. But before they could finish their words, several imperial guards suddenly rushed out and asked Mrs. Tang and Miss Tang to leave. Although the students were not familiar with the Tang family, they knew each other when they saw them.
After being captured, I couldn't help but write down the incident and find out the reason. But I couldn't find out anything. I also heard that Mrs. Tang and Miss Tang had gone home, so I came here specifically to visit." Yu Qian said.
Tang Jingyu thought the reason for his visit to his home was very strange. Even if you know my family, my family was kidnapped in front of you, but you wrote it down because of this, and even went out of your way to visit after hearing that the kidnapped people were released.
?If he has to visit because of something like this, Yu Qian doesn't have to do anything else every day. There are only two other things he can do: on the road and talking at other people's homes.
But he couldn't afford to offend Yu Qian, not to mention the fact that he came to visit with good intentions. Tang Jingyu bowed to express his gratitude and let him into the courtyard to entertain him.
Yu Qian didn't say anything strange. He just asked if He Miao and Tang Saier were in good health. He put down the things he was carrying and said it was a gift for them. After that, he casually chatted about some things that everyone knew.
.
They quickly discussed the recent reward of 500 volumes of the "Book of Appreciation" to the Korean state. Tang Jingyu commented: "These precious books, which cost a lot of manpower and property, were given to the Korean vassal. I think it is really
It’s too generous.”
"Although North Korea is a foreign country, everyone in the country admires the civilization of the Central Plains very much and cannot treat it as an ordinary foreign country. What's more, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said..." Yu Qian said his own opinion, and was about to say what he knew about other people's opinions.
He suddenly realized that he should not reveal to outsiders what His Highness the Crown Prince had said, so he hurriedly covered his mouth and stopped talking.
Of course, Tang Jingyu did not dare to ask further. But when he was about to say a few words to ease the embarrassment, something suddenly occurred to him and he said, "Young Master Yu is a reading companion in the palace. Can you deliver a message to Her Royal Highness Princess Guangling for me?"
Regardless of what Qian Qian said, Tang Jingyu continued: "My daughter has attracted the attention of His Highness and wants to call her to be my companion. However, my health has not been good recently. I would like to keep my daughter by my side to recuperate for a few more days. I would like to ask Mr. Yu to take my place."
I am sending a message to Her Highness the Princess, asking for your permission. I am very grateful." He himself also knew that it was very presumptuous to make such a request to someone he had met for the first time, but he thought about it very carefully for a long time and found that it was not fundamental.
He couldn't find any way to send a message to the princess; and now he suddenly saw someone who was likely to be able to send a message, even though he knew that there was a 99% chance of being rejected, he couldn't help but give it a try. And he had a feeling that the person in front of him seemed to be
I will definitely agree to deliver the message for him.
Yu Qian was about to refuse, but suddenly he heard that Tang Jingyu asked him to help deliver the message, so he swallowed his refusal again. When Tang Jingyu finished speaking, Yu Qian was silent for a moment and said: "I am willing to send a message to Her Royal Highness, but I can't guarantee it."
Her Royal Highness the Princess will definitely agree."
"Thank you so much, Young Master." Tang Jingyu stood up and thanked him again.
"No need." Yu Qian said hurriedly.
After saying this, Yu Qian seemed to be in a hurry to deliver a message to the Tang family, and he casually chatted for a few words before leaving. Tang Jingyu stayed with him for a few words, but seeing that he was determined to leave, he stopped trying to stay and sent him to the door.
As soon as Yu Qian left, Tang Jingyu was about to close the courtyard door when he suddenly heard a voice from behind: "Husband, who is this guest?"
"Miao'er, are you awake?" Tang Jingyu quickly turned around and said.
"I've been sleeping for so long, and my husband has been up for a long time. If I don't get up yet, wouldn't I be a lazy woman?" He Miao said with a smile, and then said: "I got up a quarter of an hour ago and put on my clothes.
I was going to the kitchen to find some dry food for breakfast and to clean the yard when I heard voices coming from the front. I didn't know who the guest was, so I didn't dare to come out casually. I waited until the guest left before coming out.
Ask." He Miao said.
"It's Yu Qian. He said that you and Sai'er have met before." Tang Jingyu said.
"Is it him? I have indeed met Sai'er, but he has no friendship with our family. Why did he come to visit us?" He Miao was certainly surprised.
"He said that you and Sai'er were arrested in front of him, so he kept it in mind. When he heard that you and Sai'er were back, he came to visit." Tang Jingyu continued to explain.
Hearing this, He Miao, who was originally very surprised, calmed down and continued to ask: "What else did you say?"
"After chatting for a while, I accidentally thought that since he was the companion of His Highness the Crown Prince, he could send a message to His Highness Princess Guangling for Sai'er, asking her to allow a few days of grace for Sai'er to enter the palace, so he said it.
I agreed." Tang Jingyu couldn't help but said: "Miao'er, why do you think Yu Qian agreed to send the message? What is his purpose?"
He Miao did not answer immediately, but turned around and walked back to the room where Tang Jingyu and Yu Qian were talking just now, took out the gift Yu Qian brought, opened it and looked at it.
"It's such an expensive gift?" The moment he saw the thing, Tang Jingyu exclaimed in surprise. "Why would he give our family such an expensive gift?"
But He Miao's expression became calmer, and she murmured: "I finally understand the reason for his visit."
"What's the reason?" Tang Jingyu asked.
He Miao did not answer, but ordered: "Husband, tell me all the information you know about Qian. If you can borrow anything about him from the Jin Yiwei, you should also bring it, and I will take a look.
"
…
…
"Master Yu, isn't today a day of rest? Which highness has summoned you to the palace?" The guard guarding the Donghua Gate saw Yu Qian and asked after checking his waistband. There is only one day of rest every ten days. On that day, if he wasn't at home to have a good rest, what was he going to do in the palace?
"I want to say something sometimes." Yu Qian said a few words briefly, and then asked: "Is His Royal Highness the Prince in the palace?"
"Not here. His Highness the Crown Prince went to the pier to see off the North Korean envoy on behalf of His Majesty. This year, the Crown Prince of North Korea and the Third Prince came to Beijing at the same time. To show their respect for North Korea, His Highness the Crown Prince saw him off," the guard said.
"Is the third prince here?" Yu Qian asked again.
"The third prince is in the palace," the guard said again.
"Thank you." Yu Qian woke up, bowed, and walked into the palace.
At this time, in the Qianqing Palace, Yun Zheng frowned and criticized the memorials. These memorials had been placed in front of him for a while, but Yun still did not criticize them.
"Xie Qing," he suddenly shouted: "I think this draft is inappropriate."
"Your Majesty, I thought..." Xie Jin hurriedly explained the reason why he voted like this.
They talked for a while and felt that Jie Jin's proposal was more suitable. Yun smiled and said, "I was wrong."
"Your Majesty has many things to do every day, and sometimes he is negligent." Xie Jin said.
Yun laughed, said nothing more, and asked him to go back. He lowered his head and continued to answer the memorial. After a while, he finished answering all the memorials.
"Guan family, this is a secret report from Jinyiwei." Lu Yi walked to Yun with a sealed envelope and whispered.
Yun nodded, tore open the envelope, looked at it carefully, wrote a few words on the memorial inside, put it back into the envelope, and temporarily put it on the table without commenting on it. After that, he got up and left the Qianqing Palace and went to the harem.
He had just left the Qianqing Palace and met Yu Qian head-on. When Yu Qian saw him, he bowed his head and saluted: "Student has met your Majesty."
"Yes." Yun nodded and asked with some confusion: "What are you doing in the palace today?"
"The student has something to tell His Highness the Third Prince," Yu Qian said.
Yun was not interested in the things between the children, and when he heard that it was between him and Wen Qi, he stopped asking. He also told him to rest well at home during the holidays and not to work too hard. Yu Qian could only listen carefully.
After walking for a while, Yun returned to Kunning Palace, sat down on the Arhat bed tiredly, and let someone who was proficient in massage give him a massage.
"Husband, what's wrong? It's only noon and you're so tired?" Xiyao asked.
"It's nothing, just other matters. It's just a matter of Qin Song asking Zhezi to send Jin Yiwei to India. The merchants of the Ming Dynasty are all in the east of India, and there are very few people in the west. If you want to search for information, you must send more people. But you can be there There are not that many captains who can keep their true identity from being discovered, so I am worried about who to send." Yun briefly introduced a few words, and seeing Wen Qi standing nearby, he asked casually: "Why did Yu Qian come to the palace to find you today?"
He just asked casually, but what he didn't expect was that Wen Qi had a strange expression on his face and didn't answer immediately.
